Lady Bellais- Excellent experience!

5.00We loved the Lady Bellais snorkeling trip! The crew was absolutely lovely, fantastic food, beautiful reef/fish, and a fun tour on the water. They accommodated our infant, who spent a lot of time crawling around the boat and trying to take over for the captain. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone. It's definitely an island vibe and a fun atmosphere. We were part of a smaller group, which was great! It looked like they had a larger crowd before us and they all reported that they enjoyed it as well. For the price and the experience, you really can't beat it.

5.00Great experience. Captain and crew were very welcoming. The boat was beautiful. We were taken out for a little cruise around Klein Bonaire and then by the downtown area of Kralendijk. After that we went to our snorkeling spot where we were given our gear and instructions on how to safely enter and exit the water from the boat. We snorkeled for about an hour. The spot was gorgeous. There was a photographer who joined us in the water and took many photos of everyone in the water, which you could purchase at the end of the experience. After snorkeling we boarded back onto the boat for drinks and a wonderful lunch. You could also swing off the boat into the water. All in all it was well worth it. Everyone had a wonderful time.
Great snorkeling trip in Bonaire!

5.00Lady Bellais snorkel trip was so much fun! We arrived in Bonaire on a cruise ship. Due to having 2 medical evacuations the ship arrived several hours late into port. We had wonderful communication from Lady Bellais folks informing us not to worry they would wait for us. So our lunch cruise turned to a dinner cruise! The staff of the vessel were welcoming, informative about Bonaire and focused on safety for snorkeling. They were in the water while we snorkeled and served a wonderful meal and yummy drinks once we were back on board. Great experience!
Top day!!!
